GREENSBORO, CALIFORNIA: It isn't very clear whether 'My Big Fat Fabulous Life' star Whitney Thore is single at the moment. But chances are that she is.

She recently revealed that she went on a series of 'dismal' and 'abysmal' dates after signing up on a relationship app, in the TLC show's Season 11 trailer.

Thore mentioned that she was back on the app after a long hiatus and expected to find a suitable match. However, her expectations were thrown out of the window as none of her dates were to her liking.



 

Why did 'My Big Fat Fabulous Life' stars Whitney Thore and Lennie Alehat break up?

Lennie Alehat was first introduced to fans of the show as Thore's boyfriend back in the show's second season. However, by the end of the third season, Thore disclosed feeling stuck in a relationship that didn't seem to move forward at all.

According to Distractify, Thore was quoted as saying, "I realized maybe I have needs that he can't meet or doesn't want to meet. I need a relationship where I feel like I'm not asking the other person to change." 

Did TLC star Whitney Thore meet secret French boyfriend on Paris trip?

Thore made a trip to Paris in between the filming of the 'MBFFL' seasons 9 and 10. Screen Rant reported that she spent six happy weeks exploring Paris and its surroundings with the mysterious Frenchman, who was later revealed to be Nail Rayner, supposedly a French rapper.

The relationship between the two, though went strong for a while, later fizzled out owing to a lack of commitment from both sides.
